Design and Optimization of Biomass Power Plant
Course Project: Western Michigan University
Analysis results of the research show that integration of drying to power generation from
EFB increases the overall efficiency from 22.08% to 29.92%.
Different integrating methods considered to increase the overall efficiency.
Investigation and Optimization of Factors that Affect the Fuel Economy of a Passenger
Car (DOE)
Course Project: Western Michigan University
Investigated the factors that affect the fuel economy of a car by doing Design of
Experiments and Regression Analysis.
Hypothesis testing of several factors that have direct impact on fuel economy of a car
have been investigated.
Design and development of a catapult
Course Project: Western Michigan University
The Catapult was designed in CATIA-V5 and analyzed them in GD&T in order to achieve
final output.
Implemented process like Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (DFMEA) with other
tools such as Product Design Specification (PDS), Quality Function Deployment (QFD)
and Design of Experiment (DOE) in order to achieve the final product.
Design of a Thermoelectric Cooling/Heating for Car Seat Comfort
Course Project: Western Michigan University
